It be Napa Vs Booth III Sutherland was poor tonight and as Mr Nelson said he needed that it should teach him a few lessons. Cut on cheekbone,Caught a few times as well not overly impressive..a lot to work on for Mr Sutherland.
^^ I meant III. It's one a piece and Napa is back down to British level realisitically, it makes sense. Sutherland ain't as good as DeGale. It's the truth. People are getting too high on him because he's powerful and looks good offensively. I could see something was up the first minute of his pro career when a bum jabbed him square in the face.
I agree he has a lot of flaws and he ain't that powerful imo he seems to have flashy punches but they don't dent these guys. He looks the part physically but as a boxer i'm not overly impressed..he has a few nice moves but as you said gets caught with jabs...he admires work...poor in the pocket and lacks defence. If a fighter puts pressure on him and gets close they can get to him he doesn't move head and seems to lack any counters. Btw i agree on Napa vs Booth and it be a great fight and Booth i believe would win i said that the night he lost to Napa i know Jason can beat him again.
:thumbsup I said to my mrs a minute before the stoppage that the ref would be looking to halt proceedings...corrupt *******s:deal. BTW, I thought Sutherland looked dreadful at times in there with an average, but game opponent.
Rocky wasn't at the races... Booth was just far to slick, I can't believe some of the punches he manages to find from the most obscure angles. He looks as though the fights can't come quick enough for him Sutherland.... what happened? Looked like one of the brightest prospects I've seen in a long time but he got it all wrong.. he seems to talk a good game so hopefully he learns from this but I'm not half as impressed with him as I was.
It looked as though he didn't have the power he's demonstrated in previous fights, either down to the opponent or very humid conditions?? (sounds gay saying that but the commentators did mention a lot during the fight)
I put the lack of performance down to a game opponent who actually came to fight...I hope that this is just a glitch and isn't indicative of Sutherlands actual ability. I don't think that the heat would have troubled them...**** me I can remember when smoking was allowed at events and at times you had real difficulty seeing the fighters through the fog :yep
I thought the guy near had Darren out of there 5 or 6 shots he took without giving one back. Really thought he would have a better defence than that especially with him training at the ingles. Anyone know if he is still on that Jefferies card i really doubt it his eye looked a bit bad
I very much doubt it...not because of the cut but he will need to chill out and try to build confidence in the gym again.
he is more than hopeful that he will fight in sunderland. his team will make a decision on monday. but so far the cut is healing well
Lets hope so, and lets also hope that his last outing was just a glitch...I hope he does well as he seems like a nice kid.
Seems a nice guy like the way he has avoided everything about DeGale even though ever time he is on the build up always mentions how its 4-1 to him but he lost when it mattered
